'It's an excellent price,' he was saying. 'And I am certain of it, Tobias. These works are like good wine. Their value can only rise.'
'No, no, no!' replied the other voice in a high-pitched whine. 'He calls them seascapes. Well, I can see the sea...but precious little else. ...'
絵画の話なので "seascapes" は海の景色のことだと思いますが、念のために辞書で確認します。
